They're localizing Star Ocean. It would be insane if they don't do it for dragon quest. Everyone has to lookat squares line-up thats coming out in the west and should have the same expectation for this title
While that's certainly true, your scenario is no more likely than mine. It's already been stated by Nintendo multiple times that NX is a new, dedicated gaming platform. It's not a Wii U controller.

(missed something?)
On top of niche PS3/Vita stuff like Trails of Cold Steel and Lost Dimension.
JRPG IS BACK
Japan is slowly returning to form. No doubt TGS will have cool stuff from Capcom and Sega (PSO2 PS4 and Phantasy Star Reboot pls).
Its scary since theres still like 3-4 more events this year where we can expect even more announcements.....
I have been looking for something to play on my 3DS since I've had my time with Fire Emblem, which would you suggest from 4, 5 and 6?

3DS version will probably sell a lot more in Japan, but it can still do well on PS4. Also, they have a Playstation version because they want to expand the franchise in the west, where in fact the PS4 version will probably sell more.Two questions:
1. Why is the NX release tentative? Seems like a stupid idea to announce a game for a platform that you still haven't decided will actually get the game.
2. How is Japan reacting to the multi-platform release? I'm assuming they don't give a shit about the PS4 release (even though it looks amazing) and everyone is going to buy the 3DS version.
Now we just need
-Dark Cloud 3
-Suikoden VI
-Wild Arms VI
-Kings Field VI
Whole lotta VI's
Here we go with the whole 'Xenoblade create big open fields' again. I'm not sure why every JRPG'S that features them these days is apparently taking inspiration from Xenovlade. Weird.
If Japanese gamers fail to get buzzed for a console which has the titles mentioned in that list (FF7 REMAKE) then they truly have lost their soul
Yeah, isn't this basically just them picking up where they left off with DQ8?
Ugh.. Can't we all just be happy? Let's not be starting this shit just yet.
In before all sales are on the 3DS.

Seriously.The more important question is how well will all these JRPGs sell in the end? You better show SE that their refocus was worth it.
Hold me! Now I have to decide to get PS4 or 3DS! The 3DS 2D/3D gaming looks amazing! And the PS4 version looks beautiful!

The list is great, but kinda echoes, will this really revive things in Japan and will PS4 finally gain prominence?
So adding the up on the list Square-Enix has the following titles coming to PS4:
Star Ocean 5
Dragon Quest XI
Final Fantasy XV
Dragon Quest X
Final Fantasy Dissidia
Dragon Quest Heroes
Dragon Quest Builders
World of Final Fantasy
Kingdom Hearts 3
Nier 2
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
Dragon Quest Heroes 2
Final Fantasy 7 (PC Port)
Final Fantasy 7 Remake
Project Setsuna
Hitman
Rise of the Tomb Raider
Just Cause 3
Final Fantasy XIV Updates (An unidentified amount of content will continue to make it's way to the game).
I got to say I'm very impressed with the output they have coming to the PS4 so far.
I'm getting everything day one to show supportThe more important question is how well will all these JRPGs sell in the end? You better show SE that their refocus was worth it.
While I have no doubt DQXI will be localized, VII and VIII on 3DS are far from "niche" titles in the DQ franchise and lol at calling them spinoffs. VII in particular is a full-blown remake.
People have every right to be wary of more DQ in the west. I don't think they should be, but it's not some ridiculous feeling for someone to have like you're implying here and have been in multiple DQ threads.
The list is great, but kinda echoes, will this really revive things in Japan and will PS4 finally gain prominence?
But neither are they first-release mainline titles. Main titles yes, but they are entries in a port/remake series that wasn't selling in the West. It's not like they never gave the ports/remakes a chance here; they did and we, collectively, didn't buy them.
Anyway it wasn't that he cast doubt on the localization, but that whole smarmy attitude of a parent talking down to his unruly kids that annoyed me.
They were likely selling as well as any DQ game would ever sell in the west on a portable console. The problem is that SE has had unrealistic expectations for Dragon Quest in the past. I'm hoping they've brought their projections down to earth for their upcoming DQ push in the west.
Needs a substantial price cut and bundles this year. Then a slim revision model to go alongside all the releases next year with further bundles.
A console Monster Hunter game which is unique to consoles would be a massive help too. I would say thats in the realms of possibility now as Sony is in bed with Capcom somewhat these days.

There are no random battles in the 3DS version.Edit: Post above, we already have a difference between random battles vs. no random battles right? I'm sure there will be a bunch of differences between the two versions.
Console gaming is boned in Japan and nothing Sony or Nintendo will do can ever change that. Let's just be happy there are so many JRPGs coming to PS4 despite the current climate in the Japanese market.
The PS4 version is going to be hugely improved from the 3ds version, right?
Is it basically the same game with better visuals or will there be considerable differences besides that?
I know Ninokuni was released on both, but I don't know what were the differences between both versions.
DQ IX actually sold over a million copies in the west.I'm fairly sure DQIX did much better. And quite honestly we have no idea what their projections were or what they were based on.

People assume that XI is a done deal in terms of localization just because we are getting Heroes?
Has anyone here ever played a Dragon Quest game before? Why do I have to constantly remind you guys that we haven't had a non-mobile Dragon Quest game in the west since 2011?
If anyone is going to be publishing this game it will be Nintendo and/or Sony.

Does anyone have an idea as to why all of these JRPGs are coming all at the same time now? Seems like way too big of a coincidence. What was the spark to create this movement?
It all seems so unreal to me. I feel like I've gone back in time to the SNES, PS1 or PS2 era. What a time to be alive!
